Review/Setlist: Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds In Melbourne













Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds rocked the historic Palais Theatre in St Kilda, Melbourne in front of a sold-out crowd last night.

The Oasis head honcho arrived onstage to a standing ovation from a crowd of enthusiastic fans and celebrities including Jet's Mark Wilson.

Triple M's Dangerous Dave said the old Palais proved to be the perfect venue to see Noel, apart from the fact that the lower level is all seated which Noel pulled people up on after the fourth song.

"Why are you all seated? That's a bit weird...," he said.

The fans didn't need anymore convincing than that to get on their feet for the rest of the gig.

The High Flying Birds sounded awesome. The musicianship was as tight as a drum, while the songs roared.

As the band launched into "The Death Of You And Me" Dangerous Dave leaned over and said, 'this will be the next single', and Dave knows his stuff. You can check it out here, get on it!

In the mix with some new songs there was a decent spattering of Oasis songs to keep the punters happy.

Ending the gig with "Don't Look Back In Anger" the Oasis fave had everybody singing at the top of their voices, while waving their hands in the air.

There were occasional bursts of people shouting out requests for their favourite songs but Noel would have nothing of it.

"I'm not doing requests. So you can stop shouting out," he said with a grin. "I had to work on this setlist for 20 minutes last June."
